Some cool things I saw at the Portland Swap Meet today - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

First was this flat bed dually with the flip hood over the 454.

Second was this 72 CST Blazer Highlander. Unfortunately the SPID had been scraped off the glove box many years ago. Most of the engine was in the back along lots of other parts.

Lastly was this sales demonstrator(?) It was a scale and each weight was part of a truck, chassis, engine, front and rear suspension transmission, and the cab. The truck was a 67 or 68 long bed and if you put all the pieces on one side and the truck on the other side the whole truck outweighed all the individual components.

It had a small placard on it with what I believe was a salesmans name. Unfortunately that picture didn't come out.

Cool! There was just a Marketplace post near me selling a blue Highlander rear Blazer seat for $250 and it was original and looked perfect. It sold fast.

Dang, I need to go to that…I need a seat

Saw this unrestored C20 Cheyenne Super with the 402. Nice truck with the exception of the multiple mirror mounting holes in the doors.

Im not in a collecting stuff mode anymore, Ive been dumping stuff right and left, very hard for me to do ... But! I probably would have purchased that, Ive never seen anything like it.

More from today. The first Task Force has a fiberglass club cab. And lastly a sweet green Burban that sold and was loaded up for the trip to it's new home.
